If a tank is designated a tatin killer and has the weapon, does this effect it if I were to shoot at a regular tank i.e. a stomsword fires its valcano cannon at a chaos predator, does this effect anything since its a titan killer weapon, since titan killer weapons get a d3 structure points against the titan does this or can this do anything to a normal tank? and where can I find this?

Titan Killer weapns only get their special abilities against vehicles that are designated "titans"

the plasma blastgun and volacanoncannon do have some extar's when they fire on a normal vehicle, the IA update 2004 has rules for this, the IA volume 1 has the ability of the shadowsword listed in it's entree.

Not fully correct, they do have some special rules against models with wounds and against normal vehicles, it's just that they have a greater chance of getting a penetrating hit.

In my view this is correct. I find no reference in my Imperial Armour Vol 1 concerning a better chance to hit normal vehicles. The Titan Killer rule is specific to Structure Points, and that is under the Shadowsword entry.

You would think since it takes d3 struture points you would think there would be a great rule like d3 penetrating hits
